Inspire Nation Show with Michael Sandler

Today we have an exceptionally simple yet all-powerful meditation designed to help you relax and bring more love into your life. This meditation goes great with today’s guest, Dr. Sue Johnson, one of the world’s leading authorities on love, romance, and happy couples. You can do this meditation anytime of the day, and I recommend doing it as much as you possibly can. This has been a very powerful healing meditation and mantra in my life, particularly whenever the going has been tough. For I haven’t always been the positive guy you see here, and I needed a lot of rewiring work myself. And this meditation, is all about positive rewiring! If you like this meditation, please do us a HUGE favor, and share your love, by rating and reviewing our show on iTunes. It’s the #1 way to help us, and to help more people to find the show. Thank YOU so much. And to listen to Dr. Sue Johnson’s interview, or more meditations by me or our guests, visit our inspire nation show or InspireNationShow.com. I send love. I send light. And many, many blessings your way. Namaste. Okay, this is perhaps the simplest meditation I’ll be leading so far, but it’s also quite likely the most powerful. For this is the one where it all begins. To bring more love into our lives, we need to love ourselves more first. This requires burning new messages into our minds, or pressing new grooves into the record that plays over and over again in our heads. Unless you’ve ascended, chances are there are still some negative messages rolling around like marbles. I know for myself, I had a TON of them, and like you still have some to work on myself. But where it all begins is self love. When we truly love ourselves, we can love another, we attract more love into our lives, and attract incredible positive experiences and outcomes. It all comes from the love. So today we’ll be burning a new self-love record. We’ll be repeating a very simple self-love mantra over and over again. Now you don’t need to believe what you’re saying, in order for positive benefits to take place. Let me repeat that. You don’t have to believe it. Just keep repeating the mantra. It’ll raise your energy levels, raise your vibrations, and over time, you can’t help but begin to believe it! I recommend doing this every day for at least a month. Commit to it for yourself. Wake up, roll over, and practice 3 to 5 minutes of this I Love Myself Meditation. So how do you do it? Well, I’ll have you repeat along with me, the simple words I Love Myself. At the same time, you’ll breath nice and slow as your right hand massages your chest in a circular motion clockwise (up inside, down outside) on your chest, or tapping your chest right above the heart with your first and second finger. It’ super-simple, looks pretty silly, and amazingly effective. I swear by it, and it’s dramatically helped me rewrite some toxic wiring in my mind... Incredibly Powerful Relaxation & Self-Love Guided Meditation Designed to Help Rewire the Mind for Positivity, Love, Happiness & Courage! This One is a Life-Changer!!!

To summarize, you’ll breath in for a count of four, hold for a count of seven, and release for a count of 8. Then you’ll repeat. Like I said, it’s super, super simple. Yet surprisingly effective...

Did you ever wish you could talk with God, that you could ask questions, and have your queries answered! Then if so, do we have the show for you! No, today we’re not going to be talking with God, but boy would that be a show. We are however, going to be talking with Beth Banning, best-selling author of Interviewed by God: A Journey to Freedom. We’ll talk about communicating with God, or how to turn inwards, and listen to our own inner wisdom. And we’ll talk about the incredible inspiration and freedom one can find, by taking a journey on the inside. Of course, we’ll also talk about turtles, crows, kundalini rising, and what in the world Pizza Chicken and unicorns have to do with enlightenment! Beth Banning Show Notes What do Unicorns and Synchronicities Have in Common? Did you have a close encounter with a dolphin? What was life like before you had an inner knowing? Everything we’re seeking is right here within What is this underlying tension that’s got us in knots? The importance of being willing to be uncomfortable Emotions are like the weather – they come and they go It just moves when we feel it – doesn’t stagnate or push buttons Buttons are just stagnant trapped energy Awareness of Freedom channels (body, mind, spirit) Are access points We are all looking for internal guidance The party is never in the cave Process of Active Imagination – Neale Donald Walsch does this – simple, beautiful process of communicating with your higher knowing. If it’s a negative thought, that’s not God or the Higher Knowing Voice Started writing book – “send me someone to interview me…” There’s nothing to learn, just being aware of what’s always already been there How do you help people to cultivate their own awareness? There’s no such thing as a right foot in front of you, just keep going Spiritual myth: guidance will give me an end-result or the guidance isn’t working Know that you can’t know in the moment the value of the step you’ve just taken Marshal Rosenberg’s work – Non Violent Communication (NVC) What to do when your mind goes nuts Do values exercise Use discomfort as an alarm to wake you up What can I do right now to feel more peaceful, or help a person with me to feel more peaceful Everything you need, every question you have, it is all within you.

Today we have a very simple, relaxing mindfulness meditation to help you clear your mind and drop your thoughts. You can do this meditation almost any time of the day and for any length of time. You can do it at your desk, walking, laying down, almost anything, though I wouldn’t recommend doing it while driving or operating heavy machinery. This meditation goes well with today’s guest, Beth Banning, talking about connecting to your higher self or your inner wisdom. To check out her interview, or hear more meditations from me or our guests, visit our inspire nation show or inspirenationshow.com. And if you like this meditation, please do us a mondo-big favor and please rate and review our show on iTunes. It’s the #1 way to show your support and help people to find the show. Thank you so much! I send love. I send light. And many, many blessings your way. This is a super-simple four count meditation. It doesn’t get much simpler than this. Of course, in its simplicity lies it’s beauty. All you’re going to do is inhale for a count of four, hold for a count of four, exhale for a count of four, and hold for a count of four. Of course, I always want you to inhale in and out through the nose, which has great health benefits, and dramatically helps relax the body. Rather than trying to quiet the mind, try to just keep focusing on the breath. If a thought comes up, and it will, notice you’re thinking, then go right back to your breath. It’s like you’re out on a date, someone may stop by to say hi, but you’ve got you’re date, so you probably won’t invite them to the table. Now I don’t want you to be rude, but if a thought comes up, you don’t have to it to the table either, simply go back to your date, which in this case is your breath. Alright, are you ready to begin? I’ll give you the count, and we’ll just go for a few short minutes. Of course, feel free to continue after I stop, for as long as you’d like. The more you do this, the easier it gets, the more you’re pressing new grooves into the record of your mind, and the more relaxed, and resilient your mind becomes...

School, one of the world’s pioneers in robotics, and the primary developer of the concept of the Creativity Workshop.

For example, if you want to ask someone for a date, don’t sit around wondering for 3 months, but ask her for a date. May work, or may not, but will get to the end and find some success much sooner than sitting around wondering about it.

The goal of this meditation is to help you catch repeated thoughts before they start creating an endless loop in your mind. Ideally we get to learn how to drop all thoughts, but it’s the repeated offenders that get us the most. It’s said we have 60,000 thoughts a day, and that 90 some-odd percent of those are the same thoughts over and over again. So those are the thoughts we’re going after… A Beautiful, Relaxing, Mindfulness Meditation To Help Rewire Your Mind to Quickly Catch & Release Repeated Thoughts & Let them Go to Quiet Your Mind | Inspire | Inspiration | Motivation | Inner-Peace | Spirituality | Relaxation | Happiness | Self-Help

I want to describe this too you. Please take your right hand and flip it palm up. Now place it palm up, right in front of your heart, up against your chest. Keep it palm up, touching your chest, but touch your thumb and forefinger (first finger together so they make a circle).

We’re always talking about how YOU can improve yourself and YOU can change your life, but it’s often exhausting and filled with worry, and how do we know what’s best for us anyway? Well if you’ve ever wondered if you’re trying too hard, striving in the wrong direction, or have no idea where to go-or how to right the ship, then do we have the show for you! Today we’ll be talking with Toesha Silver, and she’s here not a minute too soon! She’s the best-selling author of Outrageous Openness and the recently released Change Me Prayers: The Hidden Power of Surrender. Today we’re going to talk about a very powerful way to live. It’s called Outrageous Openness, or how to be open to the world around us and the divine within or how to seek a divine plan so life happens through us, and for us, rather than by us. That plus why giving away your Seinfeld collection, may just set you free. Topics Include: Life happening through you and for you, rather than by you Scammed by scammer, but the money returned It’s about creating space to allow Not about chasing, pushing, grasping Tosha’s Story Was very sick for 3 years Idea of offering to a force of love Not about asking for help with “my” problem What would happen if it stopped being my problem, my life, the “small self” ownership If I get out this life is now owned by you, show me the actions you want me to take Felt hopeless because illness had gone on so long How do you stay out of the trap of striving, wanting, and worrying Right action begins to happen through you So important to create space rather than pushing to make it happen Offer it to the divine and say “show me the first step” What’s the Trouble with the Law of Attraction The energetic part is great, we attract according to our vibration Keep vibration high will attract to that If it’s low (anger, darkness, etc.) will attract to that Trouble is, it’s often used to give a shopping list…like shopping list to Costco Problem is, there’s often a divine plan that’s far greater for us How do we let go without losing our grandest vision Think of what you’re doing on behalf of love, and love knows all the steps that need to happen Instead of saying I need say I offer Need hands open to receive. Become able to bless the obstacles Vision boards are beautiful, but very limiting, very small I am here to serve love, Think of inviting Love in as an ally Use very simple prayers (and meditation) of invitation Help me to center, help me to trust love Having a God Box – putting all of your worries in your God Box How to let go (of Seinfeld) and de-clutter Having a sacred fire with our vision boards The breadcrumb trail – when what you desire is offered to the divine you start to get shown a trail Offering does not mean passivity How to listen and hear – an inner knowing How do we cultivate the inner knowing Part is through the prayers – offering it over It’s not do more, strive more, give more, but instead get centered and OFFER back Completely different recalibration of your energy What Surrendering Really Means For more information visit www.InspireNationShow.com Discover Why the Law of Attraction & the Secret Can Leave You Exhausted, While Outrageous Openness Leaves You Recharged, Rejuvenated & At One with Your Highest Good!

Do you ever feel there’s greatness inside of you, a higher purpose or calling, something grander more meant for your life, if you could only figure out what it is or how in the world to tap into it. If so then do we have the show for you! Today we’ll be talking with Derek Rydell prominent life, business, & career coach to Emmy and Academy Award Winner,s Fortune 500 execs, and evolutionary leaders in business, spirituality nad the healing arts. And he’s the best-selling author of several books, including Emergence: Seven Steps for Radical Life Change. I must say, Emergence it one of the most radical books on life change I’ve read, but I mean that in a GREAT way. For Derek Rydall empowers you to be your most amazing self, one much grander than you ever could have imagined! So today we’ll talk about Emergence 101, about understanding who we truly are, how to discover our gifts, and to grow from the tiny humble acorn, to the magnificent oak, we were each meant to be! Topics Include: Why “Self-Improvement” is an oxymoron What “the end of self improvement” really means Derek’s story for self improvement, which didn’t work. Why he was: Suicidal Addicted to Drugs and Alcohol Struggled to drive across bridge without pulling it off the edge Coral Reef Near-death experience – Had to surrender Discovered the “self” trying to improve was a fiction Went to monastery to become a monk Learned we’re not broken – Instead we must learn how to dust off the perfection which is already there We are already perfect, whole and complete! The challenge with the Law of Attraction is that it’s trying to attract, improve or achieve from a limited perspective Attracting from a limited perspective creates a barrier or resistance to what is already trying to emerge. It’s like trying to serve two masters or ride two horses at the same time Law of attraction – manifestation cycle – why it often doesn’t work The true meaning of whole-work, not homework. How to tune in to our true self How to know “you are already whole and complete” Are you congruent with this truth? Why Ego and The Tribe get in our way Ego is designed to keep us the same – is an artifact of our evolutionary growth So tribe tries to keep us down, and ego tries and prevents change – isn’t letting us evolve Happens in our “tribe” called our family as well, is a vestigial protective device Need to separate yourself from that until you can hold your space in that expanded place. THE EMERGENCE MODEL – Whatever’s “missing” is what you’re not giving Because the truth is, everything really truly is within you. How to be the light Emergence is the “ultimate weight loss program” How to turn on the divine power within.

He’s the best-selling author of several books, including Emergence: Seven Steps for Radical Life Change.

It should be a life-changing ride! Topics Include: Life isn’t happening to you, but through you, as you and for you – it is a HUGE shift and reframing First stage of Emergineering – Vision – Seeing the Completed Vision There is a seed of genius in you A lot of problems we experience are a symptom of us not being rooted in our deepest vision How do we figure out our deepest vision? Vision Blinders The Soul Profile - Exercise to see what’s trying to emerge in us Think of three or four people who are amazing… How to think outside of the fish bowl – will save the fish though! Have to know where we are going, or we will get lost Second Stage of Emergineering – Congruent Conditions Now can build on the direction we built in stage 1 Using Visualization to Get in Touch with the Frequency of the Vision Careful not to focus on future, but on the frequency, to let your highest destiny come through! Your destiny is beyond your imagination – Your imagination can only rearrange what we know What’s most important is the imagination of the soul, not of the mind How to go from Station B-Lack to K-RICH Once you have the vibration, articulate what are the qualities of that vibration What are the feeling qualities? Break down each quality with LIFT practice Living in the FEELING Tone Look at people, places, objects, and activities Activate what gives you joy! How to create a life by design, rather than by default, out of this emerging vision To bust out, you need momentum so you don’t keep getting pulled back. Remember you are complete “If I am really this deeply supported in life, and if everything I want in life is already here, how would I show up in life?” What might I take a chance on, what would I start, what might I finish?” For More Information Visit www.InspireNationShow.com Inspiration | Motivation | Mindfulness | Spirituality | Spiritual | Law of Attraction | The Secret | Health | Business | Career | Self-Help

Perhaps you've seen Dr. Terry Wahl's viral Ted Talk with over 2 million views! If you’ve ever had inflammation, an auto-immune disease, sore joints, heart-disease, asthma, high blood pressure, or if you’re just plain human, then do we have the show for you! Today we’re interview Dr. Terry Wahls, one of the most extraordinary doctors out there. She’s come back from MS, and from a life in traditional medicine, to develop a functional medicine protocol to help us all live healthier, more energetic lives TODAY, and to come back from autoimmune disorders from MS, to Luppus, Lyme Disease, Diabetes, Chronic Fatigue, and the list goes on and on and on. Today we’ll talk about the heart of disease, why at it’s source, it’s all cellular dysfunction, where it comes from, and most importantly, what in the world we can do about it, beginning TODAY. That’s most important to me, that and kicking butt energetically. Jessica and I don’t have a show to run, but we want a family too, and we’re both coming back from long-term illness, her more than me. But if we admit it to ourselves, aren’t we all struggling in some way health-wise? We were never meant to be tired, achy, and old before our time, or brain-fogged at any age. And we were never meant to live on pharmaceuticals and a lifetime suppy of supplements. So I am so excited to talk with Dr. Wahls today. Show Notes and Topics Include: Ted Talk – Mind Your Mitochondria From Wheelchair to Walking Did you believe you could come back – what possessed you to look for an answer? History – steady decline even with aggressive treatment Discovered institute of functional medicine Redesigned life based on Took functional medicine plus supplement approach Ted Talk – 2 million views in 2011 Getting “younger” All autoimmune disease is the same at it’s origin Immune cells are at heart of how run biology Asthma, IBS, krohns, ulcerative cloritis, rheumatoid arthritis, schelarderma, psoriasis, MS, lupus, type 1 diabetes, acne, artherosclerosis, schizophrenia Most chronic diseases that aren’t affected may be found to be auto-immune in nature Mold-toxicity syndrome Auto-immune related Chronic swelling in one extremity Damaged blood vessels, whether veins or lymph ducts leaving that limb Also autonomic nerves that regulate flow could be damaged If exposed to bold, many of us our immune cells can attack, and clear it from system. Some of us can’t clear them as well, cause damage to organs, rev up inflammation and if have auto-immune process make it more severe What’s the difference between a diagnosis and a disease? Difference between conventional and functional medicine approach Example: uses IBS Conventional: use immune suppressing drugs Different “levels” for functional medicine Create more health for your cells, and healthier cells make helather organs and healthier body Basis is wahls diet plans Level 1 – tons of vegetable e. 9 cups of veggies 3 cups is one plate – so 3 plates of veggies each meal Organic grass fed meat – though can do it as vegetarian Meditation Moving the body every day How is this diet different than standard paleo diet What is ketosis Can starve health-promoting bacteria in gut Ketosis 6-12 months will help starve out candida Make starchy vegetables raw – gut will ferment them into ketones and won’t Berries and fruits okay Limit apples, pears bananas What are good fats vs. bad fats Which to have, and which to stay away from No gluten No dairy – casein bad, but ghee may be okay.

Today you’re in for a special treat! I just finished an interview I’ll have up in two weeks, but I was so excited by what our guest shared, that like a kid in a candy store I wanted to get you this exercise right away!. So today we have a very relaxing, and powerful breathing exercise and meditation brought to you by our upcoming guest Patrick McKeown, a world expert on the Buteyko breathing method and author of seven books on the breath including the brand new Oxygen Advantage. You often hear me talking about breathing in and out through the nose. There are many powerful reasons for that, one in particular is to help the mind go quiet, and rewire. This exercise in particular will help you do just that. By practicing this exercise, you’ll literally making changes to your brain that will help you throughout the day, and any time you experience stress. This exercise will help you cultivate greater concentration, focus, patience, and relaxation, even under heavy stress. With practice it can even help you sleep better. ---Perfect Too for ADHD or a Hyper-Active Mind!!!--- It’s very powerful, which is why I practice it quite often, and I always stress breathing in and out through the nose. Patrick will first discuss some of the benefits of this breathing method, then lead you in a very informal breathing meditation. My recommendation is to listen through fully the first time, then go back to where the music begins and dive straight into the meditation, tuning out his words as you go along. This is an exercise you can do any time of the day to immediately reduce your stress and quiet the mind. You can do this at work, at your computer, on break, at the dinner table, in bed, on a train, or almost anywhere you can think of. However, as a powerful breathing exercise that can dramatically quiet the mind, I do not recommend it while driving a car or operating heavy machinery. If you like this meditation, please do us a huge favor and rate and review our show. It’s the #1 way you can show your support, and help others find the show. And of course, there’s lots of great karma points involved. Now we’ve been told, it’s much easier to rate and review on a computer than you’re phone. But if you’re on your phone, you have to back out of inspire nation, type inspire nation in the search, then look for the ratings and review tab. Thank you so much. We’ll have Patrick McKeown’s full interview up in about two weeks. To check our more interviews or meditations, visit our Inspire Nation Show, or inspirenationshow.com. I send love, I send light.

If you’ve ever had your life touched by a pet, a friends pet, or even heard of someone’s life being completely transformed by the love of, or for an animal, then do we have a special treat for you. Today we’re talking with Dr. Bernie Siegel, the best-selling author of Love, Medicine, and Miracles. He’s one of the most well known doctors there, who talks about humanizing medicine, compassionate care, and the choice to live fully and die at peace.

Today we’ll talk about the healing power of love and animals, how they’re much more than just furry or scaly creatures, and how they have an almost magical power to transform our lives and fit in, in our crazy world. If you’re looking for inspiration, or a smile, then today’s celebration of animals and the love and miracles they always bring is for you! I can’t wait to hear the stories he’ll tell! Notes from Interview Include: Why Dr. Siegel is a Jungian Surgeon Why a mechanical approach to medicine is broken Why animals always come from the heart What he learned from his pets House rabbit Past regression – once killed with a sword, now heal with a sword Animals all get along as family Even a turtle and fish became best buddies! You can communicate with animals Animals speaking to us Animals at Nursing Homes Animals healing us - the healing power of animals Healing vibration of cats – the purring Petting an animal changes your chemistry People recover from heart surgery better if go home to a pet For single women – get a dog, take a walk, you’re more likely to meet a guy Cats, Laptops, and Keyboards Being called to animal shelters Animals passing away and the messages they give us Furfy passing away – animals passing away in their sleep Wants animals to be surrounded by love, with us when passing away, not at the vets, it’s a much simpler transition Animals coming back “reinpregnating” vs. reincarnation Animals are here to teach us, and they become family.

There’s an expression I once heard from the late Dr. Wayne Dyer, you must die while you’re still alive, or you must almost go through your own death in order to truly live. Well, having gone through two near-death experiences, I think there’s something to that, though I’d never wish it on anyone. But there’s a simpler way too, if we can open up our hearts, and learn from others. Well today we have an amazing spiritual teacher on the show. His name is Mark Nepo. He’s the New York Times best-selling author of The Book of Awakening and his new book Inside the Miracle. He’s experienced incredible suffering while having cancer not once, but twice, and at the same time as his former wife. But even in his darkest moments he didn’t become bitter, instead, he’s learned how to truly live, and I believe he’d even call it a miracle. And that’s what I want to talk about today, about how to embrace life fully, to overcome fear, and to dive in in head on and heart-on. Topics Include: Why you can’t block fear, you can only let it through, like wind through a tree. Radical acceptance Letting go of the hopes and dreams and goals in order to open up How letting go is the kindling of our aliveness Sometimes the dream doesn’t come true, but WE come true. Story of Japanese monk Tetsugen Pay attention to what brings you alive, follow what brings you alive. Trust literally means to follow your heart Respect literally means to look again How to reframe and have trust in the middle of something difficult Under everything we go through there is solid ground. To be broken is no reason to see all things as broken. Even if we fall down, we’re on solid ground…build from wherever you’re at, even if it’s a square inch. Alcoholism vs. Make-aholism Best way to honor someone we love is to be the best switch we can Story of Janice and Tom The teaching power of trees – rooted and leaves sway with the wind, they give We must be rooted, and we must sway or be flexible A miracle is a process, not an event. How to follow your heart Integrity toward aliveness How to listen to your hearts Being in the present moment – mindfulness – closest to everything that ever lived Stay in that perfect present moment. Your heart and your life are bigger than anything you can feel and experience Trust that our heart will find a way Whatever is opened in us is more important than what opens us.

Today we’re going to do a very special, kindness and compassion mediation. This is a great meditation to help you feel better, and help raise the vibration of the entire planet! You can do this meditation any time of the day, and I especially recommend it for the middle of the day, particularly when you’re around others. This meditation goes beautiful with today’s guest, Mark Nepo, NYT best-selling author of The Book of Awakening and his new book Inside the Miracle, who’s had to learn a thing or two about kindness and compassion, particularly for himself. If you like this meditation, please do us a HUGE favor and rate and review our show. Ratings and reviews are the #1 you can show your support, and help others to find the show. That plus it’s great karma!!! To check out Mark Nepo’s interview…and yes he was on Oprah! Or to check out our latest meditations, visit our inspire nation show, or inspirenationshow.com. I send love. I send light. And many, many blessings your way. Namaste. Okay, this is an exceptionally simple meditation. You can do this anywhere, at any time. This is a go to meditation of mine on subways, in traffic, at intersections, or anywhere else people are stressed. Emotion is an energy, which means a frequency…everything is a frequency. And the more we focus on the energy of kindness and compassion, the more we can change the frequency of everything and everyone around us. Things like to come into vibrational harmony, hit a tuning fork, and everything around it begins to vibrate at the same frequency…and the bigger and stronger the fork, the more of an affect it has. So the more you’re in a frequency of kindness and compassion, the more others will be as well…and if they’re not quite there, you’ll still help them to be a bit more loving, less anxious, and all-around feel better. Best of all, you’ll feel better too. Science has shown that thinking of others, releases the most amazing healing, and feel-good chemicals and hormones in the brain, chemicals we can’t release when we focus only on ourselves...

Today we have a very inspired entrepreneur, artist and athlete, who will be talking with us about overcoming hurdles, chasing your dreams, and doing what it takes to succeed. He should know, he’s built over 20 companies worth over 100 million dollars (combined). His name is Mike Stemple, and I’m proud to call him my friend, and our first mentor, when we were getting our first company RunBare together, what feels like eons ago. Mike has a knack for cutting through the B.S. and getting at the core of what it takes to succeed. He’s done this with dozens of startups, while running ultra-endurance races, and in his own way, with his artwork as well. If you’ve ever driven i-25 through Denver, you’ve likely seen his Denver Bronco’s mural on a prominent building. I think though, what impresses me most about Mike is his inability to quit, hear no, or get discouraged, no matter what. To make 20 million dollar companies, means being willing to fail, and fail a LOT, something Mike knows a lot about too. But he knows how to ride fear, or look past it, something I’m fascinated by. Mike’s life hasn’t been all roses, he lost his hearing as a child and developed a speech problem. He damaged his brain in a car accident at 24 losing his medical and military career. He’s struggled with depression himself, and with severe illness, something I’ll let him tell you about. But Mike has come back, time and time again, not just to build companies, but to inspire us all. At age 39 he became a sponsored athlete after running hundreds of miles across the desert sands in the Sahara. I guess that’s why he calls himself, a full-time inspirer. Questions Include: What was life like for you as a kid? How did you become a serial entrepreneur? You’ve had numerous very serious health-challenges and really trying times. In retrospect, why do you think these happened? What’s your mission in life? How would you say it’s changed or evolved? How or why did you ever think, I’d like to become a sponsored athlete and run across the sahara? How do you get the idea to start a company? What have been some start ups we may be familiar with? I’ve recently heard the expression from numerous sources fail fast. What do you think of failure? Can You Talk About the Law of Attraction, The Secret, and Yoda You used to have a website Iamnotafraid.com, what do you mean by that? What’s the illness you’ve struggled with? Recently, you struggled through a pretty dark time. I think we ALL go through dark times, if we can recognize that, they often make us stronger. What did you go through and how did it change you? What advice would you give for parents raising kids, or to empower kids these days? Topics Include: Lost hearing – learning how to communicate Learning it was okay to fail Learned failure will only happen if work hard and try but success will only happen if try Yoda – try or not try – disagrees, thinks all there is is the try Fail and Fail Fast Rails against Yoda Quote, because greatest things in his life at moment thought failure was imminent – if believed it was absolute, that there was nothing beyond Law of Attraction & The Secret Ran Atacama Desert Crossing Didn’t want to play it safe Wanted to truly “live” Act to prove his health Training became his full-time job Separated shoulder on flight to Chile Spiritually was vacant – didn’t go there with full respect of The Universe Spiritual experience – changed person “I lived my whole life to become the person I am today – was it worth it?” Flipped “worth” question around – was my life worth it to The Universe Realized lived so much about “me” was I worthy of my life? Back from desert Succeed more than you lose Favorite moments 20 100 million dollar plus companies or “step children” to him Skinit Rich N Wraps (3M bought them) Odojo, Lesoro, Enriche Courage vs. Bravery Courage exists in fear, bravery transcends it Like’s courage since has to be with fear Learns to separate the rational vs. the irrational fear. How do you predict success? “Effectual Action” Premise #1 (bedrock of overcoming fear) Overcoming who are you? What do you know? Who do you know? Everything will come out mediocre if try to do it all yourself Passion is the box that holds the above 3 questions together Can’t do a “money idea” Why “Wet T-Shirt In A Box” is a Million Dollar Idea, but NOT the right way to go. MUST MEET YOUR CORE VALUES! Passion idea is always best – must be something you totally believe in YOU must be YOUR avatar!!! Johnny Iveand Steve Jobs, biggest fans of their products Can’t be about the money…world is littered with start-ups this way Has to be about your passion – if you’re not 100% a believer in it, you won’t have the strength for your company. Always refer to your company as if it’s an individual and a person. Have to be very introspective Premise #2 Acceptable loss – what am I willing to lose by doing this venture? Are you passionate about it??? Human condition – suffering will come to us Everyday given choice, free wi

And many, many blessings your way. Namaste. Woo hoo! Okay, this is a super-simple, yet really fun meditation, Jessica Lee, my wife and co-host on inspire nation shared with me. You can do this meditation any time of the day, and anywhere you’d like, it’s particularly fun to do on a park bench, on the subway, or anywhere you can radiate love all around you. Of course, you can certainly do it from the privacy of your own home as well. And if you have pets, particularly kitty-cats, expect them to come around. To begin, as always, I want you to breathe nice and slow and deep in through the nose, and out through the nose as well. Nice and slow and deep. Now imagine a glowing three-dimensional warm glowing ball in your heart-chakra or center point in your chest… Inspiration | Visualization | Relaxation | Meditation | Spirituality | Spiritual | Mindfulness | Heart Chakra | Happiness | Love | Inner-Peace | Joy | Bliss

Hi Everyone! Jessica Lee here, Michael Sandler’s wife and wing-mate in life and occasional host on Inspire Nation. If you’re new to the show, Michael is your regular host, but today for the second time ever, a rare event indeed, I’m turning the tables on Michael, so today he’s a guest on his own show. If you’ve been listening to the show, then you’ve likely heard Michael mention a couple of near death accidents he’s had. Today, we’re going to revisit near death accident number one, what transpired right before, what exactly took place so that Michael found himself flying through the air before crashing down on a cement sidewalk and how he found his way back, stronger and more vibrant than ever before. If you’ve ever felt completely upside down, like you’ve been thrown in a blender and tossed around or as if someone’s just hit the reset button on your life, then do we have the show for you. We’ll be talking about why we sometimes need a cosmic two by four from the universe, what you can learn from life’s seemingly darkest moments, and how a positive attitude can make all the difference between slipping away versus rising to the occasion and shining brighter than ever before. Key Questions Include Michael, before, we dive into the events that place on April 2nd, 2006, let’s talk about the adventure you were about to embark on that summer. Can you share what you were busy training for up until that point? Had you had any fears or hesitations about the upcoming journey? Were the pieces falling into place naturally and easily? Now let’s head to the morning of April 2nd, 2006. That day you were out for a regular training skate on a beautiful spring-like Sunday morning in Boulder, Colorado. Can you paint a picture of what that day was like? At one point, you stopped to take a break and cool off. Can you share what happened there? Had you been listening to Inspiration by Dr. Wayne Dyer? So you laced up and headed off again down the trail, then what happened? The EMT’s arrive and they keep asking you if you’ve hit your head, why? Was there a sense of relief? Do you think perhaps there was a part of you that felt this trip was a mistake? So you arrive at the hospital and the doctor takes x-rays of your leg. What was his prognosis? How did you know everything was going to go back perfectly? Did you have any fear whatsoever? After you’ve woken up after surgery, the doctor comes rushing into your room with new x-rays. At that point, how long were the hospital personnel planning on keeping you there? How did you convince them to release you early? At this point, it might seem like the hardest part of the ordeal was over, meaning surviving the accident and getting out of the hospital. But things didn’t get easier. When the accident took place, your fiancé at the time was out of the country. Two weeks after you get out of the hospital, she breaks up with you. I imagine that was extremely devastating at the time. You’re lying or sitting in bed for much of everyday, barely able to care for yourself. Stacks of hospital bills are starting to arrive in the mail. You can’t work. And then the woman you think you’re going to spend the rest of your life with drops you cold. What was going through your mind? Why do you think the Universe served it all to you at once? How did you stay positive? What was the process like for you learning to walk again? Was there ever any question? What did you discover out on the trails? Often, when we experience a major health crisis, it’s like hitting the reset button. I’ve found that in my own experience, it’s an opportunity to break old patterns and habits that no longer serve us and to put in new habits that do. What were old habits that didn’t serve you? Where new habits that came out of this experience? Inspiration | Motivation | Spirituality | Spiritual | Mindfulness | Health | Wealth | Happiness | Wayne Dyer | Self-Help

Today we have a very short, relaxing meditation that’ll help you calm the body as well as the mind. It’s called the Slow Breath, and I’ll show you in just minute why it has this name. You can do this meditation anytime of the day, but I love it best in the evenings, when I want to slow down, and quiet my mind. If you like this meditation, please do us a HUGE favor and rate and review our show. Ratings and Reviews are the #1 way you can help us, and support the show. Plus it’s great karma! To hear more great meditations from me, or our guests, visit our Inspire Nation Show, or InspireNationShow.com. I send love. I send light. And many, many blessings your way. Namaste. Okay, for this meditation, you’re going to want to sit nice and tall, or laying on your back with your hands by your sides. In short, I’m going to count out your breaths, and I want you to do them, nice, and slow and controlled. This is about breathing in through the nose, and if possible, out through the nose as well. The trick it to go slow and controlled, and get as much air as you can into your belly. Yes, you won’t want a tight belt or taught draw string for this one. A key point, if you have a medication condition such as heart disease or asthma, check with your doctor first, and make sure it’s okay to practice, very slow, deep breathing.

Have you ever had a dream so real that it didn’t feel like a dream at all? Ever stranger still, did anything in that dream later come true? Or have you ever had a coincidence or multiple coincidences occur to you, maybe back to back, that left you with goosebumps, thinking to yourself how in the world is that possible? If so, do we have a show for you! Today we’ll be speaking with Robert Moss, a world-renowned expert in the field of Active Dreaming. He’s a former professor, a shaman, and an expert when it comes to signs and symbols, or the study of the “coincidences” we see in the world around us. And he’s the best-selling author of well over a dozen books including the recently released Sidewalk Oracles. Today I want to dive into the “magic” and understand what dreams really have to offer, what active dreaming, and in a sense, how our awake world, is still a world of dreams. I think we’ve all experienced strange coincidences, and certainly deja-vu moments, I want to find out what they really mean, if they’re just coincidences, or if there’s a lot more here than meets the eye…and if so, how we can use these synchronicities to live a more magical and meaningful existence. Topics Include: How to know you live in a magical world If you have magic inside of you then you live in a magical world If we’re open then things we speak to us We live in a speaking land - Aborigines Take 10-15 minutes every day and be available For 15 minutes receive what the world around you is trying to tell you Listen to what people are seeing Look at what a child is drawing How do we live by synchronicity? Prepare to have your “plans” “screwed up” Best things happen when plans come un-stuck Trickster energy – Coyote, Fox, Universe Transition and movement is when it all multiplies What is the meaning of trickster energy and how does it work? Works at the luminal places – at the border places Be ready to change when things aren’t working out. Developing your personal definition of things Develop your own personal omens What follows from a certain thing? What is the pattern of the day? Learning to read and recognize your own signs There is a deeper meaning at play Test, Check, Verify, and Notice What Follows Ask for guidance it will appear “Walk on the bridge don’t build on it” Don’t take this life too seriously We live in a “mind field” where all of our energies are inter-twining Lucid dreaming – What it is and what it means Lucid Dreaming vs. Active Dreaming How to become a Lucid Dreamer If more mindful in daytime reality, are likely to be more mindful in your dreams. To become a lucid dreamer, work on becoming more lucid during the day. How to lucid dream or go into a lucid dream while falling asleep “right from take-off” The power of drumming to shift human consciousness Active Dreaming Techniques Why linear thinkers still wake up to the dream world The world around us is talking to us constantly in signs and symbols Consider looking at the world as a dream report Playing sidewalk tarot Go for walk and look for first three things you notice from beyond yourself and the world around you. Look at them and make a story of them Develop a certain sense of poetic consciousness and poetic health. Jung – synchronicity and coincidence Not just that things are happening at the same moment, but clustering, and dreams come into it. Notice patterns and track them. Bibliomancy – open book to a page and it has meaning for you.

Remember when you were kid how you wanted to be a explorer, or an astronaut, or a pilot flying around the world? Then somewhere along the lines, you either forgot, or were told to stop dreaming and get serious, and you left the world of dreams and passions behind entering a pragrmatic life of compromise. If this sounds familiar, then do we have the show for you. Today we’re interviewing Greg Levoy. Greg is the best-selling author of Vital Signs: The Nature and Nurture of Passion and Callings: Finding and Following An Authentic Life He is a former "behavioral specialist" writer for USA Today, and a regular blogger for Psychology Today. He’s written for the NY Times magazine, Washington post, and Readers Digest among many others. Today we’re going to talk about rediscovering who you are, and who you were meant to be. We’ll look at where your energy’s draining out, how to take stock, and where to put your focus. Most importantly, we’ll help you change how you relate to the world so you can rekindle your inner flame. Balancing our tendency to want to stay indoors most of the time We must reconnect with what is wild in us! Our dreams Nature and the natural world around us Why we’re constantly negotiating between passion and security There’s the part that wants to take risks and make leaps and come alive There’s the part of us that wants to be safe, and secure, and in control The Danger: In a tug-of-war security tends to win…passion tends to get back-burnered. Chronically can have detrimental effects to choose security over passion Observe how often make security choices over vitality choices Reclaim ourselves from the task-master that says safety and security above all else Why no running on the playground may be the most dangerous thing of all Why society is so fear averse – i.e. Warning Labels Do not iron clothes on body This superman costume does not allow you to fly Why we must give ourselves non-work modes of expression Make art, make music, listen to music, spend time in men’s or women’s groups, athletics, sports, using the body, something that involves not sitting at a desk in front of a computer, or not being indoors Remember our passions that have gone dormant How to Find your passion Ask yourself, what part of the book store do you go to first? Do as Hannah Papp, author of the Mystical Backpacker suggests Listen to Robert Greenway – father of Eco-pyschology. “Civilization is thousands of years old, but only 4 days deep” Why we can all benefit from a mortality meditation and learning about death in order to fully live Concept that death could be a source of death Death asks what matters to you, what’s really important to you? Helps us make decision between passion and security Thomas Murton – “to make an important decision consult your death” Study: Almost everyone told less than 6 months to live were liberated in very profound ways! “My concern diagnosis was the best thing that ever happened to me” How learning about death can keep us from being trapped by life Vital Signs helps illuminate compromises Compromise and ignoring passions and nature may be the reason people have most heart-attacks at 9 AM on Monday mornings Must do what makes your heart sing Must reclaim your soul, spirit, energy, or mojo Other goals of the book Life is so rich and we settle for so little Jean Houston – author and mythologist and psychologist Says we need to live “larger than life” Help people to be profoundly present to the stuff of your life Most important question – Ask yourself what does my soul want today? This is where the work happens “Best way to make God laugh is to declare your plans” Progress happens in the “to do” list of life Deciding between the brake or accelerator, that’s where the work is in the world. Everything in life becomes a mindfulness exercise Takeaway pieces of advice Begin to acknowledge where you lose energy and vitality Take an inventory of where your energy dribbles out Use the inventory so you can change your habits and your focus Try to surround yourself with people who shine Connect with people who are living out loud Be gentle with yourself Give yourself time Have self-compassion Don’t beat yourself up because you don’t live up to your potential Remember - stuff hitting the fan isn’t bad, it’s part of the path, not opposed to the path Inspiration | Motivation | Kindness | Spirituality | Compassion | Business | Career | Self-Help | NY Times | USA Today | Reader’s Digest

In short, I want to talk about finding outrageous success, EVEN if we don’t believe it’s possible. Well, if that’s even possible.

Today we have a very short, yet powerful relaxing and rejuvenating inner flame or white light meditation. This is a favorite of mine for healing, and pulling myself up, if I’m feeling a bit down. It’s hard not to finish with a quiet ear-to-ear grin. This meditation goes well with today’s guest Gregg Levoy, who’s teaching us all how to rediscover our passion, so we can lead happier, more fulfilled lives. Okay, maybe it’s a bit of a stretch, but when you’re energy’s up from meditation, there’s more chi or juice to go after your passion. And when you’re going after your passion, you feel more enlightened to meditate as well. If you like this meditation, please do us a HUGE favor and rate and review our show. Ratings and reviews are the #1 way you can help support us, and help people find the show. So we send you a HUGE thank you in advance! To listen to Gregg’s interview, or find more meditations by me, or by our guests, check out our Inspire Nation Show, or InspireNationShow.com. Okay, this is a very simple meditation. For meditation I recommend you lay down, with your arms by your sides, palms up. Now I want you to breathe in and out very gently through the nose. As you breathe deep, I want you to imagine a glowing white light in your belly. As you breathe in it begins to expand. As you breathe out, it stays the same size. This is a heavenly light, filled with love, capable of immense healing, and relaxation...
